I am working on establishing a standard process for deploying Nintex workflows and forms across Dev, Test, Build, and Prod environments, instead of relying solely on key-based exports. The issue with keys is that they have expiration dates and can expire before QA/UAT approvals are finished, and generating new keys doesn't align with compliance requirements for standard promotion procedures.

 

To address this, I would like to use the Export/Import packaged workflow APIs. My preference is to export workflows as packages, store them in a Git repository, and then import them from the repo to higher environments as approvals are completed.

 

I need assistance with saving the response from the Export a packaged workflow API (
https://us.nintex.io/workflows/v1/designs/package/export) and importing it via API (
https://us.nintex.io/workflows/v1/designs/package/import) into higher environments. i am having challenge of preparing query parameter and handling response.

Hi ​@doorga,

It sounds like you are creating an Xtension for Nintex workflow. Is that correct?
I have created an Xtension that will download your workflow package based on the workflow ID provided. The file is saved into a file variable that you can then store where required.

It is configured for a US tenant, so if you are in a different region, you will need to modify this line in the code.

When adding your connection make sure you type in “Bearer” and then your API key as shown below.

Hi ​@doorga ,

I’m Akshay, Product Manager at Nintex working on a new Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) capability. The challenges you mentioned around deploying workflows across environments are exactly the kind of scenarios ALM is designed to address.

Would you be open to a quick call to walk me through your process and share some feedback on what we’re building? It’ll really help shape the solution.

Thanks,
Akshay
